paper, and if their worse d , Jet ,
attend to these thing", it it a clear ease
of deception; because a man that won't
pay for his paper, will deceive his wife,
and we. have our opinion of such.
Centre county can boast of as good
and true wives, and of as pretty girls,
who would make good wives, as any
county in the State: but it never onceoe
curred to us to attribute the great suc
cess of the Republican to this source.—
some of our subscribers—good, honest
fellows—have confessed to us that their
wives prevailed upon them to subscribe,
and others, no doubt, by subscribingand
paying for the Republican, expect there
by to ~brain good wives, And thus pros
per in business. Women, as a general
thing, like intelligent men, anti desire
their children to be intelligent, and they

Mr Beck was on his way to Mr. Sandy's
Yendue, when his horse *tumbled, and

T:tx payers of Centre county, arouse

to high? flow does it. come that the
taxes iu Benner, and in every other town

township less economically administered,
than in the Republican townships?
Centre county is rich in her mineral
and agricultural wealth, and yet she is
far behind Union county, and many of
our surrounding :deter aunties, simply
because our honest and unsuspecting
farmers and tax payers, too many of
them, listen to the syren song of the

THE FAMILY NEWSPAPER.— Dr. Frank
lin remarks that a man as often gets two
dollars for the ono he spends in inform
ing his mind. as he does for a dollar he
lays out in any other.way. A man eats
a pound of sugar, and it. is gone, and the
pleasure he Wit, enjoyed is ended, but the
information he gets from % newspaper is
treasured tip to he enjoyed anew, and to
he used whenever occasion or inclina
tion cell for it.. A newspaper is no' the
wisdom of one man or two men; it is the
wisdom of the age, and of pqst ages. too
A family wttliont a.newspaper is alwayg
a year behind the times in general in
formation; besides, they can never think
much, or much to talk about. And
then there are the little ones growing up
withont.any taste for reading. Who.
then, would he without- a newspaper—
and who would read one regularly with
out paying for it?

OVER-DRESSlNG.—Butchers, says the
Hat risburg Telegraph, usually kill their
victims before dressing them. Mothers
frequently dress them before killing
them. We noticed an innocent little girl,
of about five years. in the street yester
day, dressed and pinched within an inch
of her life. For health and comfort, she
might as well have been in the embraces
of an anaconda. But though the pattern
was scant, it was a love of a pattern,
and the little creature wore a butterfly
on her head, and of course it was all
right,and the was a darling. How would
one manage to have a game of romps.
do you think, with such an anatomy of
silks, lace and ribbonfi? Ono might as

streets. Mr Brown is a very clever man,
and, as .will be seen by hiB advertiBcment ,
holds out superior induceinents to the
travelling community. Mr. Brown is
also an excellent auctioneer.
Row/Efts —We are informed that the
money drawers were robbed, and the sta
tion door keys at Julian Furnace were
stolen recently by some scoundrel at
present unknown. The thief succeeded
in obtaining six dollars, only.
We also learn that a jewelry store in
Lock Haven was robbed of $12,000 worth
of goods. One of the thieves was arrest
ed, and most of the goods recovered.
RAIL ROAD. We direct the attention
of our readers to the advertisement. in
another column of the RgruniticAN, call•
ing a Railroad meeting in MlRhein], on
the 15th day of April. next. We hope that
our monied men and farmers along the
line will turn out in their strength to
this meeting. Let it be a grand—a strong
affair. We hope an effort will be made
to get the Pennsylvania R. R. Co., some
New York Co., or . any other company
that will go to work in earner , , to aid
in building the road.
Guts Sburn.—A few days ago business
called us to the room of Theodore Desh
ner, gunsmith,up stairs in Bush's Arcade.
We were astonished to see how well he
was prepared to carry on his business,
and supply his customers with every
r fling in his branch of business. Be keeps
constantly on hand a ruperior lot of ri
fles, revolv , •rs, &c. We also sow the
c-lehrsted IVitichester rifle. which lands
at the breech, and will shoot 10 times in
a minute, Mr. Deshn.r is a first class
workman. Any of our readers wishing
any thing in his line would do well to
give him a cell.
Imrnovems,rrs —We received a letter
from a friend in Canton, Ohio, who tells
us that over two hundred houses have
been erected in that place since the first
of January I tst, and that others are be•
ing pushed to completion. We wish our
beautiful city could be bui:t up thui
rapidly.
We understand that CharlesMcCaffer
ty has contracted for the lumber for ten
houses, to be built
.immediately between
Capt. Davis' property. and Shortlidge &
Cos lime kilns. The planing mill com
pany have the cellars dug for 10 houses
and we have not heard what D Q Bush
is going to do, by way of improvement,
this summer. There should be two or
three hundred houses built this season.
SAINT PATRICK'S Der —Si. Patrick's
Temperance Society had a grand proces

St. Patrick's day. we have ever witnessed
in till. town.- AU honor to Rev. McGov
erh, and hii efforts in behalf Of the c.use
of temperance,- and his fellow c•tuntry
men. We understand that the society is
rapidly increasing in numbers. May it
continue to increase in numbers,strength
and influence, until every Irishman in
the town is numbered as a member of
this society, and thus enabled to realize
that the use of alcoholic drinks as a be
verage is a soul-destroying curee—aven
onions teptiee—and as such, should be
eschewed and avoided.
SoII rIIERN KANSAS —We receives a let

THAT PARE.—A park in our romantic
city would be very pretty, indeed; and
we understand that there are really some
few persons in earnest in the matter.—
We have no objections to a park; but we
protest against the borough fathers hav
ing any thing to do with it., if it is to in
crease the local taxes. They are high
enough, in all conscience. Again, we
think it all folly to agitate the park ques
tion, while our Academy grounds are
permitted to stand, a disgrace to the bor
ough, without any trees, except three or
four old locusts. First of all, this should
be attended to. Professor Hughes is
building up a school that is an honor to
our city. Why not show him our ap
preciation of his labors, not only by sup
porting his sober], but in beautifying the
Academy grounds. if the borough fath
ers have no power to levy a tax for this
purpose, or if it is inexpedient to do so
at. present, we would suggest that it be
done by voluntary subscriptions.
If the proper effort was made in this
direction, by the right men, we have no
doubt that 50 or 100 men would, at a day
appointed for the purpose, each go to the
woods, bring in a nice maple, or other
forest tree, and plant it in the Academy
grounds. It could all be done in oneday.
If so, why not do it? This would not in
crease the taxes upon renters who pay
the property tax, and would, in a very
few years, add more to the appearance
of the town than any $25,000 dwelling
that has been erected in the last five
years This would be a park upon a hill,
It would be an improvement that could
he seen all over town, and from every di
rection leading into town. Let the. Trus
tees of the Academy lead in this matter,
they will find plenty ready and n illing
to help. We will agree to bring our tree
and plant it. After this is done, there
could he a fountain or two erected in the
Academy park. and three or four gas
lights What more than this would be
needed by way of a park ?

Jesse Oakley's Soaps.
Breathes there a man with soul so dead,
Who never to himself herb said :
"Oakley's. S 'ups are best,l'll buy them,
Sure, 'twill do nu harm to try them."
They're no humbug—for all men know,
That they'll wash clothes as white as new,
The women too, (whom heaven bless,)
For dinner now can wash and dress.
Instead of lalfring hard all day -
With worthless soap—it will not pay ;
If you'd save time. three half dimes send
For Oakley's Suap,his "Woman's Friend.'
His "Newbura• City" now comes next,
"A levy's the price," so says the text
One dime will buy hi , . dirt persuasive,
"New York Chemical Erasive.
Now the last, but not least you'll see,
Is his world renowned "K. C,"
With sand 'tis mixed, the thh.g I wot
For scouring tinware, pan or pot.
Twelve-and-a-half cents will buy it,
Don't for the world omit to try it,
His Toilet Soaps transparent are,
With ladies all these are 'hove par
Now don't forget, dear readers all.
In Number Six, Great Bush's Hall,
John and Jake, lien, Sam and Bill
bed Oakley's Soaps like all °Sam Hill."
